HOW IT WORKS
1. Pick a card for a quiet time of day. Each card names the stages it suits (Middle and Late).
2. Gather the supplies listed on the card. They are everyday items from the house. Sit close, at eye level, and speak softly.
3. Say the line from the Say this box. Invite, never quiz.
4. Stop when they have had enough. Sitting together is the success.
GOOD TO KNOW
- Always supervise. Some activities use small items or food, so read the Safety box on each card and stay with the person throughout.
- Digital download. No physical item is shipped.
- Print at Actual Size (100%).
- Print as many copies as you need for your own family, or for the people in your care at your care facility. No reselling, sharing or giving away the files or printed pages.
- These activities are for enjoyment and engagement only. They are not medical advice, not therapy and not a treatment. Adapt each activity to the person's abilities, allergies and safety, and stay with them.
